    Hi,
    does anybody know what model of SSD 128 Gb they install in MacBookPro (the manufacture, read/write speed, TRIM support).
    By chance is there a TRIM support in OS Leopard?
    I am realy hesitating between MacBookPro and new Latitude Z600.
    I'm not very familiar with Mac but hope it is fast and reliable enough with SSD.
    It's mostly for office use and travelling.
    I think about 15in with 2.53 CPU and 128 SSD.

    Thanks in advance :confused: :confused: :confused:

    No trim.

    I'm using an OCZ Vertex and it's plenty fast, reliable, quiet other than the cost of the drive being it's biggest con.

    Just sucks that TRIM is not supported on OS X just yet. I'm hoping that Apple will address this soon since Linux now is starting to support it.
